"De Winde" lies in the middle of the peat meadow polder of the Alblasserwaard. Here you find everything what we present ourselves at a typical Dutch landscape: green grazing with black and white cows, high dikes and a lot of mills. You can choose to take off from here, and visit one of the curiosities/sightseeings in the area. For example the several picturesque village cores, region centre "Het Liesvelt", or a sociably sniff in the "Brocante kroon". The hostess can also reference for pleasant restaurants or bistros.
